: DuPage Birding Club - 11/12 Auction Night! ( 3462 )

The DuPage Birding Club will hold its biennial fundraising auction on Thursday, Nov. 12. Come as early as 6:15 pm to view auction and raffle items and check out the Birder’s Bazaar. Cantigny Park will host the event, and ALL are welcome (including non-members). Admission and parking are free. The event includes a live auction and raffle prizes, plus a cash bar (opens at 6:30) and Cantigny’s famous cookies.

The live auction begins shortly after 7:30—items include binoculars and other birding gear, memberships and subscriptions, feeders and seed, framed art and photographs, guided field trips, and more. Everyone signing in for a bid number will receive a free raffle ticket. Additional tickets can be purchased. Winners choose from a wide array of raffle prizes!

Auction Night also features the Birder’s Bazaar—a rummage sale with gently-used items selling for $1, $3, $5, $10 or $20. Find and take home a treasure! The club is also accepting gently-used bird-related items for the Birder’s Bazaar tables. Those bringing donations for the Birder’s Bazaar should arrive between 5 and 6 pm.

Event proceeds support DBC, bird conservation, and organizations that care about birds. For more information, please visit www.dupagebirding.org.
